Salman (myth)

A god worshiped in pre-Islamic South Arabia.

Salman may have been the same as a West Semitic god called Shalman/Shalaman, which some scholars believe survives as a theophoric element in the names Solomon and Shalmaneser.

The deity is also attested in texts from Ugarit, Palmyra, Hatra, and North and South Arabia.
